Confirmed with Link: Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee traded to Calgary for Andrei Kuzmenko, Jakob Pelletier, 2025 2nd, 2028 7th

[freakydallas13]

Please Briere, trade Michkov for Miller and sever the last thread I have connecting me to this team.

I'm begging you.

 

[Kshahdoo]

He's slow, he's soft, he doesn't like playing defense and the league has caught up to him.
Only value would be in a sheltered role on a deep team and PP2.
Given his contract he has negative value.

He still somehow scored 39 goals in 81 games for Vancouver in his rookie season and then 14 goals in 29 games for Calgary in the previous one. Now look at Farabee.

I don't understand fans logic sometimes. First they whine the team turns Michkov into a grinder, and then they whine the player the team gets isn't grinding enough. Sometimes you just need skill and IQ over skating fast and hit everything. Especially given Farabee wasn't great in those things either.

Some teams have deals involving Necas for Rantanen.

We have this. The hilarity is that there will be some in that FO wondering why the fanbase has a negative reaction.

 

[Magua]

Pelletier is just kind of another unathletic guy. He’s almost 24 and hasn’t stuck. There’s no real upside — nothing about the timeline makes sense. But 2nd rounder in best class ever! I can’t wait until they pretend this is a rebuilding move. Noah Cates is a young prospect too.

Worst center depth in the league for years to come, mark my words.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I’d like to think this is rock bottom but I know it’s not.

They still have time to demote York for Andrae to maintain the Size Quota

 

[Redpath]

I am going to rip my hair out if I read/hear anything more along the lines of "The Flyers already have a ton of picks in the pipeline, do they really need to keep them all/trade for more?"

I fear this trade sets up an excuse to either buy ("We have the space and the assets, we need to field a team") or an excuse to not sell ("We've already shipped a few guys out, don't want to make things too volatile for the kids, we don't need any more picks")

Team is ramping up for FA this summer. Hell yeah, the Flyers are back!

IF YOU’RE GOING TO DO THAT TRADE THEM FOR ACTUALLY SOMETHING WORTHWHILE INSTEAD OF BEING A LAZY SACK OF SHIT THAT’S ONE STOP SHOPPING.

(sick)

He shot 27.3%.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Frost and Farabee weren’t in the letter.

Cya Tippett…

that first reply..dude has to be slurping someone on the Flyers

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

This helps the tank. Cool. If you're making moves to help your tank, DON'T YOU WANT AT LEAST ONE (1) 1ST ROUND PICK OUT OF THIS????

This topped the Ghost trade. At least we only traded one of him.

This is God awful. I honestly forgot there even was a 7th round in the draft

Pro tip for those wondering about rock bottom....you can't hit rock bottom when you're in a bottomless pit.

 

[flyers0909]

I refuse to believe this is true

Don't threaten me with a good time.

 

[Beef Invictus]

He shot 27.3%.

Was that sustainable in the end?

 

[Deadpool8812]

Briere is gonna overpay a centerman this summer through free agency

Whose available?

Brother he's 29 and a pending UFA and has 4 goals this season

This guy won’t play 10 games for Torts.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Can Farabee shoot at all, though?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I refuse to believe this is true

Everyone that covers this team has microwaved their organs. They have only themselves to blame. No matter how hard it is, it points to horrendous process.

 

[Tripod]

The backslapping among the Flyers front office right now probably registered on the Richter scale. Holy f*** are those boys PUMPED right now. Smartest front office in the league.

"Can't believe you also squeezed a 7th out of them!"

 

[deadhead]

Brother he's 29 and a pending UFA and has 4 goals this season

Worse. He's softer than Jake (35 hits in 190 games) and slower than Couts.
Can't imagine a player who could be a worse fit on this team.
